Welcome to my Spanish Trails website

Lots of people go to Spain for the sunshine and the beaches. But Spain is full of wonderful mountain ranges, and is a paradise for hill walkers.

I have published a series of guide books, written in English, providing walks in several different areas of Spain.

The series title is SPANISH TRAILS. 

There are currently three editions:

        * the Picos De Europa in the north;

        * the Sierra Almijara and Tejeda in the south (the mountains  near Cómpeta and Nerja);

         * the Mountains of Madrid (the hills to the north west of the capital city).

For more details about my books, and how to buy them, visit the Publications page.

For more information about walking in Spain, visit the Spanish Trails Info section.

For updates on some of the walks included in my books, visit the Updates page.
